Crosley Collegiate Turntable
I’m convinced that every man should own a turntable and a few old records, CDs just don’t sound the same and the sound quality of most MP3s is far below what you get from a half-decent, classic record player.
Yamaha XS750 Cafe Racer by Ugly Motorbikes
Ugly Motorbikes have a habit of making their name pleasantly ironic, they invariably turn out motorcycles like this Yamaha cafe racer, that are so beautiful they almost seem to pop out at you through the screen.
Skull Mechanic Tee
This original tee design by the team over at Rust Revival caught my eye a couple of weeks ago, Rust Revival is a classic clothing brand that creates a handsome line of retro goods and their store is well worth a visit.
Golddigger
We’ve been going through a bit of a vintage drag phase over here at Silodrome for the past few weeks, I think it’s because few other motorsports provide so many captivating photographs in such a small space of time.
1959 Lister-Chevrolet
The 1959 Lister-Chevrolet is one of those remarkable historical curiosities that most of us have never heard of, the eye-catching design was the work of Frank Costin, a man who is almost certainly the most underrated automotive designer of the last century.
Kawasaki Z1000 ST
This Kawasaki Z1000 ST by The Wrenchmonkees is actually a great example of the style of their work, their bikes tend to have a gritty, dark, urban feel to them – almost like 2-wheeled versions of an ’80s Springsteen song.
Roberu Leather Camera Strap
The Roberu Leather Camera Strap is the first accessory you’ll need when unboxing a new digital SLR. The stock nylon straps that come with modern cameras are usually one or two styling points away from being the sort of thing you’d get given for free with a Happy Meal, and that’s just not up to snuff.
1955 Bel Air Chrome
On the off chance that you’d ever wondered how much chrome actually went into the average American car in the 1950s, this image shows you in quite some detail.
Whisky Stones
I’ve been wanting to feature these Teroforma Whisky Stones for a long while, I decided to save them for just before Christmas because I think that many of you, like me, would find the idea of giving people a handful of rocks as a Christmas gift to be quite appealing.
1965 Ducati 250 Mach 1
The 1965 Ducati 250 Mach 1 was a major motorcycle for the Italian marque, the performance of the single cylinder 250cc engine quickly made it a popular choice across Europe and it wasn’t long till Mike Rogers used one to win the 250cc production-class at the Isle of Man TT.
Pendleton Wool Blanket
The classic wool blanket is a staple at this time of year, the heat retention and fire-resistant properties of wool has yet to be matched by any made-made fibre.
Airborne Evel
This classic shot of Evel Knievel makes me white knuckle my desk slightly, it’s interesting that he doesn’t appear to be looking at the landing ramp, but rather is looking further down-range.
